(1) Although we may not realize it, when we talk with others we make ourselves understood not just by words. We send messages to the people around us also by body movements. A smile and handshake (握手) show welcome. Waving one"s hand is to say "Goodbye." Nodding the head means agreement, while shaking it means disagreement. In China and some English-speaking countries, these body movements have the same meanings. But not all body languages mean the same things in different countries. For example, nodding the head in some Asian countries means not "Yes." but "No:" When we speak a foreign language, (2) to know the meanings of the body movements is important in-the foreign countries. In Russia, France and some of South American countries men kiss (吻) each other when they meet. Men don"t kiss each other in China or English-speaking countries. In England, older people usually shake hands when they meet someone for the first time, however, young people don"t shake hands. (3) In France, people shake hands in the office every morning. French people kiss each other more often than English people when they meet or leave. |

A short time ago he bought a rare fifty-cent piece which 10 him $250! He was very happy about this collection and thought the price was all right. On the other hand, my youngest brother collects match boxes. He has almost 600 of them, but I wonder 11 they are worth any money.
